Welcoming Fall

I had a busy week last week babysitting my friends 4 month old daughter, totally tiring. It was fun seeing how the boys reacted to a baby, I was very impressed!
They are so helpful. It is going to be so different from the last time when I had a newborn and 2 year old.

I did manage to get all my indoor fall decorations up in time for the first day of fall (yay!). And what better way to kick off fall then a cub scout camp out?!

I LOVE camping. It's so much fun and I sleep so much better outdoors. Something about the fresh air and night sounds lure me straight to sleep.

Johns and his little Buddy

S'mores! Yummm!

Little Scout.

Fight with the bush (I think the bush won)

For the most part the boys disappeared playing "manhunt" and getting stuck in the mud. They came back and checked in every so often, usually when they needed something .). They are such good boys.

Overall it was a fun campout, including the mud, spiders, more mud, and more spiders.

We made it home Sunday in time for a nap, the pool and the kids STILL had energy to help John and I make home-made pizza!! Delish!

This past weekend was our baby shower!! We decided to do it a bit early because I am one of those over-organized, over-prepared types. It was hosted by my best friend Kindle and my sister Bianca.

I told Kindle I wanted a slight winter wonderland pink theme since it is so close to Christmas and this is what I walked in to! It was absolutely beautiful, and we were joined by all our best family and friends, we appreciate everyone that made this such a special day for us.

This game was to guess how big I was and believe it or not the winner was Ethan!!
He definitely knows his Mummy! The chocolate diaper game. (It was Johns first shower, he must've thought we were all crazy). Getting ready for presents!! (The boys got to open them all). Kindle surprised the boys with a gift each.
It was a shirt with their picture saying "I'm the biggest Brother" and "I'm the big Brother" for the hospital.
Most thoughtful thing ever!!! I wish I could relive this day over and ov…

I can honestly say that I miss blogging. Facebook "memories" option has made me realize how nice it is to be able to look back at our family life and adventures.

I will (eventually) try and get caught up on the past few months, because we all know that I have photographed each and every moment, but for now I will start with Christmas.

We started shopping later than normal but managed to get everything done with time to spare to relax and enjoy the season.

Mummy came from England, I did not realize it but this is only her first Christmas with Amalia! We spent the day with great family friends, Peter, Debbie and their family. It has been a tradition for many years to do Christmas and/or Thanksgiving with them.

As per usual we had Santa Jeaux come and visit along with all the kids friends. It was such a nice reunion not only with our friend Santa, but the kids miss their friends dearly it is always a great occasion to get them together again. I appreciate all the other m…

I have promised the kids that once spring came around we can plant a garden since in our top back yard we have 2 big beds.
It was s a lot of work to clean out the beds it was full of debris that took us a long time to sift out, but it was oh so worth it!

I wish I had before and after pictures to show you just how bad it was, but I didn't think about it because I was in full on mission mode.

We still need to plant the second bed, it has been a bit rainy, and to be completely honest I am terrified of worms, caterpillars and snakes.

My community Facebook page has been posting about copperheads everywhere so I am hyper paranoid when I am out there, but I hope to get around to it soon!
